Rick and Morty’s season 4 episode 3, “One Crew Over the Crewcoo’s Morty”, is ostensibly a satire of the heist genre. However, by the end of the episode, the true target of the episode’s mockery is clear: Netflix and its movie strategy. The latest Rick and Morty episode is a slaphappy romp, following a series of increasingly madcap heist storylines.

But the SanDisk iXpand isn’t just a dumb charger: it also backs up your iPhone’s photos, videos, and contacts. You might still question the product.
